Hi,
To correct this problem, download and install a tiny patch
from the following URL. This would delete upper and lower
filter from your computer registry:
http://www.dougknox.com/xp/scripts/xp_cd_dvd_fix.vbs
Usage: Download files to your computer and simply
double-click it so that it would automatically get
installed. Norton anti-virus software might warn you of
a "malicious" script, this is normal if you have "Script
Safe" or similar technology enabled.
I recommend you to choose "Authorize entire script" option
next Action.
Good Luck !!
